She said: “I must say it has been smooth so far. The electoral officials came early enough to commence the exercise.I say kudos to the commission.”
She faulted the allegation of thugs depriving people of exercising their civic rights.
“Election is going smoothly in the Iba Local Government Area, but I don’t know what is going on in other areas. You can see that things are orderly here and no intimidation or harassment,” she said.
She expressed optimism that her party, the APC will come out victorious.
“My expectation is that my party should come out victorious in the governor and assembly poll. Our governor, Mr Babajide Sanwo-Olu would win because he has done quite a lot for the people of the state. We appreciate him for that and we want him to continue on that terrain and do more for the people of the state, especially in the Iba area. We need more development and we look forward to him giving us the best in terms of infrastructure,” she said.
